Scene Crossfade Times For LV1

musicjohnny · September 15, 2020, 1:02pm

I’d love to see the option to set crossfade times for scoped parameters in scenes like fader position, panning, send levels, etc.

This is a standard feature on so many other consoles and I’d love to see it implemented on LV1.

I work primarily in the church production world and there are so many instances where this would be beneficial. Since we’re often mixing for multiple destinations (front of house mix/monitor mixes/livestream mixes) simultaneously from the same console, the level of complexity necessitates snapshots…but they’re not really useful when the transition is immediate.

This feature would be an absolute game-changer for many people in the live sound industry and I’d love to see it soon in a future update.
Thanks!

Yes! This would turn LV1 from a non-option to a no-brainer for many situations! Even if the fade doesn’t apply to every parameter. A scene fade that only applies to fader levels would suffice for a lot of situations!

Totally agree with the snapshot crossfades for fader position. All of my shows have at minimum a dozen fader position and mute state scoped snapshots for 60 minutes of content. The scenes on LV1 are basically useless for us since transitions between bands, playback, and talking heads need a smooth crossfade. It’s honestly the one thing holding me back from replacing our remaining Profile systems with LV1.

You’re not alone there. It’s the one thing that would prevent me from replacing my existing LV1 rig with something vastly more expensive. I saw a comment on Facebook forever ago that Waves was about to roll this feature out. But still nothing. It would literally take LV1 from unusable for certain things to nearly perfect.

Right. I could finally take my Profile systems out of service. It’s just baffling that systems introduced in 2005 had these features but the LV1 doesn’t.

You’re right! I mean, even the Yamaha DM series and 02R had scene fading. And that was in 2001!

Waves, please hear us on this.

We still want this… like, REALLY badly. Any updates on this feature, Waves?
